The Shadow is a person who self proclaims this name as a sign of his autism.Dont get too close because he will proceed to flex with his robux from his moms credit card.Do not engage conversation because he will say "who asked". I repeat, stay away from him, if he starts to say something about giving you free stuff its just a trap, he will proceed to assert his unexistant dominance.Is very "toxic" and can be mistaken for a fortnite player very easly.

A reactive emotional pattern that develops in response to the rubber band effect. When one partner repeatedly snaps back into the relationship, the other—wary of the cycle—begins forming secret emotional or romantic connections. Shadow banding is the quiet stretch: a hidden coping mechanism born from mistrust, grief, or emotional exhaustion. It’s not about cheating—it’s about survival when the relationship feels unstable or unsafe.
After she came back and ran off the girls I was dating, I started shadow banding—keeping quiet connections just in case she left again.

A friend who follows you around whilst shopping, potentially because they have no sense of personal style or space. Highly annoying. When you ask their opinion they will often say what they think you want to hear, rather than their genuine belief, lest it be 'wrong'.
